I bought this windshield as a replacement for my 5in shorty black windshield (purely looks) hoping it would give me better protection from wind buffeting. I am very happy with the protection this windshield provides and it didn't really change the look of the bike. I am very pleased with the result. The windvest windshield is very sturdy, even at 80mph it doesn't flutter and visibility through it remains clear. Worth every penny!

The stock shield on my 06 Road Glide shook like a bag of rats in a burning meth lab. The Windvest is shorter but very stable and allows more protection from buffeting.

The light tint gives it a cooler look than stock while offering more protection than the short shield as on the 10 R.G. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a little more protection than stock and a better look.

I was hesitant at first about getting any type of windshield but after eating eoungh bugs the decision was easy. I'm 6'0 w/ a 34" inseam so I'm not as long torso'd as many reviews I read. The height is spot on, top of the shield stops right at my upper lip. I can hear the radio and on shorter rides don't need the foam padded glasses. My only gripe is that the shield scratches relitavely easy when cleaning it, even with a clean/new microfibre towel. I highly reccomend.

I have a 2012 CVO Roadglide and this windscreen fits perfect. I just got back from going to Myrtle Beach which was about an 8 hour trip one way, and in all of the other windscreens that I have tried on my other bikes I have to say that this one is the best and the only one I will ever buy again for any of my future bikes.

I actually ended up exchanging for a 14" . I am 6' tall and the 12" did not provide the coverage I was looking for. They are VERY well made and seem to be of the highest quality. I mounted the 14" and traveled 1700 miles. I loved it! I got the style I was looking for and the reduction in helmet buffeting ( which was my ultimate goal)

I had a 17' Windshield on my 09 RG prior to using this new shield and was extremely disappointed especially after reading all the great reviews on it. I selected a 12" Windvest shield after actually calling Windvest and asking them their opinion. I am 5'9" with a 31" inseam. my bike is a 2009 Harley Road Glide with a Road Zeppelin seat and a 1" lowering kit.when I sit on the bike the top of my windshield is about level with my mouth. There is still quite a bit of noise and cannot hear my stock stereo very well, plus due to the wind I have considerable buffeting especially when wearing a helmet. If I would have purchased this from Windvest directly, they have a policy if you don't like the height you can exchange it for a taller one, however you cant beat Dennis Kirks price and free shipping. I guess I will have to sell this
